Here we go, the final chapter. This happens to be my second favorite installment in the friday the 13th franchise. My all time favorite would be the original, but this comes pretty darn close. Really, the kills were just amazing. Very inventive, and to top it all off we have Tom Savini doing the excellent special effects! The main reason some people are giving this negative reviews is because it was supposed to be the last film in the franchise, ending Jason's rampage. As it turns out, it wasn't the last, but that didn't mean all of the sequels that followed sucked. In fact, two of them were great. Parts 6 and 7 to be exact. I'm not going to count Freddy Vs. Jason (decent crossover) as a sequel because it had more of a Nightmare On Elm Street tone to it. Long story short, this is one of the best installments that literally has everything you could wish for in a friday film. Definately worth a buy. If you are a fan of friday the 13th or you like slasher flicks, you HAVE to add this to your collection. If you don't, you're really missing out.

Ok, I have watched the first 3 Friday The 13th films in a row. After the huge dissapointment which was Part III, I kind of gave up hope on finding a good film in the series besides the first one. Part 4 is a little bit better then 3, but not as good as 2. With a new director, new writer, more gore, better effects, and some decent directing, the film actually does well. But, the movie is stupid, repetitive and brings nothing new to the series. While we get a batch of new characters, mostly teenagers and more sex, the movie just got boring, which it was. The movie begins with the end of III, where the police and emergency crews find the massacre which was the 3rd movie and also find the killer, Jason Voorhees. When Jason is dropped off at the morgue, it begins to get a little bit better. With great opening death scenes, I felt like I could easily get into the movie. But then as we are introduced to lamer and more boring characters, I myself began to get bored. Then after about 20 minutes of nothing, some more gore arises and the last 30 minutes of the film are the fastest, which is not really fast. The thing absoulutely loved about this movie was to see the gory and great death of actor Crispin Glover, because to me, hes a freak. A rat lover in Willer, to a hair smelling maniac in Charlies Angels and finishing off by playing the voice of a Grendel in the recent adaptation of Beowulf. It was nice to see him get wacked in one of his first films. I have to give it up to new director Joseph Zite for pumping up the level of violence in the movie. We get plenty of actually pretty good gore scenes, most being impalements and what not, I thought they actually looked pretty good. I guess its because of the increase and advancements in technology.

The movie isnt either surprising nor scary, because every scare or useless plot twist was scene coming when the movie began. It tries to add some little stories to have your mind jumping back and forth between whos the killer and what not, but fails miserably.

Part 4 is not the best nor worse of the series, but its boring and repetitive. Worth a sort of look, if your drunk.

my favorite friday the 13th movie, it has great deaths like crushing guys head against a wall and hacksaw to neck and how jason died at the end was awesome cool.
